Sadly, I have heard that Africa has more natural resources than any of the other continents. If something doesn't change I don't see the situation improving in the next generation. Just look at recent events in Nigeria.

Mohamed (piss be upon him) had an uncle named Abdullahi (slave of Allah) and Allah was one of three hundred "gods" the desert tribes had worshipped before Mr Mo.

Allah was the pagan moon god and in fact the pagans had built the Ka'ba, the black stone Mooselums pray toward. Stone throwing and the Hajj were pagans rituals. I think many Muslims know this but they cannot discuss and/or would rather live under the delusion that they're on the "right path".

The Africans were stripped off their own religions steeped in African culture and history. They were given two religions and name Mike and Mohamed and they've been killing for it for the past several hundred years. They've been so brainwashed that they'd attack any person who considers outside the box.

Nigeria represents a clear picture of the evils of Islam because the Muslims there have been given so many concessions and yet they still can't get along with their fellow country men who just happened to have a different religion. When Muslims aren't fighting others they're fighting amongst themselves. Poverty and ignorance drive them to extremes. In Senegal, the government built a statue to attack tourism and the Muslims (of course living in abject poverty) protested and said it was "UnIslamic" completely unfazed by its potential. They have been led to believe that Allah prefers that they remain poor and ignorant and they'll be given a better life after they die!

The good news is that many people are now waking up, especially the youth. I've met so many people from Somalia, Egypt, Iran, Afghanistan and elsewhere that are just fed up with what Islam had done to their people and countries. There's a movement below the radar and that it is best it remain that way until it is appropriate to chart another course of action to enlighten people from this evil. So all hope is not lost.

All religion is just child play. Yet a lot of people take it seriously. Some time when I see these big beard Somali Sheikhs I almost laugh at them. Religion replaces the role of parent hood it looks like human never out grow the idea of having guiding, providing and controlling parents and that is when we start to war ship superior being called "GOD" Come on people lets get real and wake please don't abuse and kill other human in the name of Islam or in any other religion because they all fake and man made. Thank you.

Idinkoo Soomaali caata ah, hadana noqday qof aanan Illaahay jiritaankiisa aamisaneyn dhib weyn ayaa idiin heysta. Besides that, some of you who recently reverted Islam are good at condemning Prophet Mohamed peace be upon him. Even atheists can’t deny or confirm that the existence of Allah because they don’t have proof for that. Newly reverted Somali atheists are the tool for spreading lies and insulting Islamic religion. The problem that atheists have is that their view toward Islam is only narrow minded because of what they listen or read from the western media. Most atheists don't think that there is proof that God doesn't exist. I don’t think Islam will miss you or yearn for you as well as I don’t think you will improve quality of being atheist. May Allah curse you.

Anonymous; You hate atheists, and it's not really a shock to anyone (your religion of hate and violence and your emotional distress prove so) and you did not repudiate the points mentioned in the article at all. And, so, no chance to debate.

"May Allah curse you."

- I don't think Allah exists, however, if he does exist, I'd say he has cursed YOU with hate and depression rooted in emotional instability. Just examine what you've written and you'll gain insight as to mental potency. Chances are, you probably will not.

"Even atheists can’t deny or confirm that the existence of Allah because they don’t have proof for that."

- here you've just proved that as entirely accurate because, you're correct that atheists can't prove Allah exists, and you cannot prove Allah exists either. So you're technically an atheist though you're not aware. I hope this isn't one of those Islamists-apologists favorite tag line of rhetoric that alarms the normal mind based instability, as name calling and physical threats typically follow. All cults, large and small, rape the mind.

Ciyaalka Xaafada(Philosophy 101)People normally believe that they are being individually attacked when someone says something that they don’t like because of that you are human being and then Somali. To be honest with you, I have about 7 Somali atheist friends who are in doubt the existence of Allah Subxaanah Watacaalaa and now they can’t take any more of being Deity. Atheism is first and foremost a reaction to, or a denial of a religious certainty and that does not determine other philosophical beliefs. It is your personal choice to believe or not to trust if Allah exists but the reality is, your position is just philosophical ideas of materialism, like i taabsii ama i tus. Ciyaalka xaafada waxaa soo qaadatay kaliya ereygi aan ku soo gabagabeeyey hadalkeyga oo Ilaahay ha idin naclado. Laakiin uma jeedid caayda aad caayneyso Nabiyulaahi Maxamed. Mida kale dadka aaminsan mabd’a in Ilaah uusan jirin oo cilmiga leh marnaba ma caaytamaan laakiin idinka Soomaalida caatada ayaa sidi qalinki oo kale la idiin adeegsadaa waxyaabahaas. I am saying I wish we could meet and challenge each other for a real academic debate. As I believe you are a single negative atheist.

1) we weren't discussing the meaning of philosophy.2) I don't recall asking you how many atheist friends you have, or whether they're enjoying being "deity," whatever that means.3) Not believing Mohamed or Allah doesn't meant an insult them.4) I can assure you that I'm not a tool paid by the CIA, FBI, KGB or any other boogeyman exists in your conspiracy theories.5) If you had wished for an academic debate, you're doing a lousy job seeking one.

CIYAALKA XAAFADA I am sorry I didn’t mention in the beginning that I am the same guy who said May Allah curse you. I forget to give myself a “name” but I am now using username as Qaloocoow. I owe you an explanation. You didn’t understand my second position because you had already misunderstood my first. NEXT TIME GIVE ME AN ANSWER "What is the definition of God?"

CIYAALKA XAAFADA. So now you are telling your audience that Muslims and Islam are in general. Criticism should not be for the sake of criticism. You know the crusaders a peaceful Muslim nations like Iraq, Somalia, Afghanistan and much more and slaughter innocent women and children. Hilter who was an atheist killed more 50 million innocent people. Why don’t you mention people like Hitler an atheist before you were even born had this narrow mind philosophical idea? Who dropped two atom bombs on Japan? Who killed there million Vietnamese? Who brought imperialism and so called new world order? All those question you need to answer as you always narrate your childish view against Muslims. Are these killings to blame for the Muslims or Non-Muslim or atheists like you. You have the mentality of Wafa Sultan and Ayan Hersi. Whether you call yourself a free thinker or an atheist, you have to do more research before you denounce other people. You know what happened with Ayan Hersi. Check this link below. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WxMHMcFh-s

Yes, and I think giant lizards are flying inside your head. And just because I believe so, it is sufficient proof that they are, indeed, flying inside your head. And so that proofs the existence of Allah and POSSIBLY Spiderman, too. :-)

Some people might think both Allah and Spiderman are fictional characters, they just lack sufficient proof. :-)

CIYAALKA XAAFADAOk let’s say that Islam is a violent religion. So what? Bring a rational solution what to do with them. Don’t bring what you heard from FoxNews, CNN, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and other racist talk radio’s.

Sir because of your tone and deep hateful attitude against Muslim and Islam, you only inspire stupidity and argument beyond rationality and it has No whatsoever any truth. You have the mentality of George Bernard Shaw, Hitler, and Brigitte Gabriel, Wafa Sultan and last Ayan Hirsi. Grow up and be brave let’s see your face.

I don't understand your objective. This is an atheist blog and as such we're contemptous toward religion. We're repudiating these silly superstitions that drive people to madness, but we're not here to correct Islam, that's for Muslims to do.

Ayaan Hersi Ali is a Somali writer whose work I admire and appreciate, ditto for Wafa Sultan. I don't think they're like Hitler and I think it's poor judgement on your part to lump them together. They haven't harmed a single person and they're former Muslims who became educated and want to enlighten people about Islam. Theo Van Goth was supposed to produce a film called "Submision" with Ayan and he was killed for it by Muslims.

But that is not what the blog is about. If you're an Islamist and what is written here does not appeal to you, it's your prerogative to visit Islamist sites/blogs where you're more likely to feel at home. If you're in grade school and confused about life in general, work on improving your skills and don't bother with writing meaningless banter.

u two are a classic case of wot is wrong with our world today....ciyaalka xafada and qaloocoow.....instead of presenting ua point of view u busy lashing out at each other....truth is life is a huge puzzle and whether or nt u will find answers along the way well no one knws really....smeone said never argue with a fool coz they drag u to their level n beat u at it....so instead of bin two fools stop arguing abt wot may hve or nt hve bin and use humanity as the common denominator by which u both ua dffrnces asyd......mr ciyaalka i neither support this nor that so let me b the first to say u are abt to mek a world full of violent pple angry and as u myt knw no1 wants to b told they are wrong and hve bin for centuries.......i would suggest presentin ua case without negativity towards the othersyd.....n dearest all reigions are da sem by da end of da day....da emphasys is on DIVINITY....

hey guys im a Somali atheist too. Just to let all the other Somali atheists, agnostics and deists know that you are definitely not alone. I personally know 4 other irreligious Somalis and there are many more in the closet.

Ilaaheey (swt) wuu jiraa alxamdulillah. eber waxna ka dasho. 0+0 waa 0. Something has to start the reaction. thats what we learn in physics and science. Nothing can come out of nothing. And this darwinian tero is just a tori without any proof.

Off course god exists. what this and answer. Ther is no any athiest that could answer this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fiJdfCiWo4I
